These cards just make me feel like I stepped into a vintage shop! Again, I couldn't resist putting more of those rub ons to work - and this time I discovered they worked beautifully on vellum! I again used my Empress machine, and love the effect on the translucent vellum! I tore the edge, added another layer with a similarly torn edge, and then layered over some of the gorgeous pattern paper in the kit. Added some Clear Dazzling Gems, a couple of stamped washi pieces from the stamp set in the kit (stamped in Clay and Lilac inks), and a simple die cut sentiment from the kit. Here is a closer look at each of these cards:

 Hello!

For these first cards, I fell in love with the rub ons in the kit! They are such lovely vintage floral images, and these two in particular caught my eye. I discovered that if I ran them through my Empress die cut machine, I only had to do a little bit of actual rubbing - the pressure of the machine did most of the work for me! I recommend playing with your machine to find the best pressure if you test this out. I added some pattern paper from the kit in the background, and some sentiments from the Modern Scrapbook stamp set in the kit. Finished off with a few Bubblegum Dazzling Gems for extra sparkle!

Vintage Floral Birthday Cards - Simon Says Stamp

Good morning! I've been trying to make my way through supplies that haven't been used yet, so to that end, I have a couple cards to share today using a Simon Says Stamp embossing folder from a couple release back, and used a fun technique for a unique look!

To create these cards, I first used the lovely Pristine Blooms embossing folder on two colors of Spellbinders colored cardstock. I then used closely matching colors of SSS ink - Blush and Iris - with a rubber brayer over the back side of those panels (the debossed side). This gave a lovely vintage look that made these florals just pop! I stamped and die cut the EZ Strips Birthday sentiments, and adhered those with foam adhesive over some Iridescent Cord that I looped behind them. Finished off with a few adhesive pearls for an elegant finish! Here are a few more photos of these cards:

Embossed Pastel Floral Cards - Simon Says Stamp You Are My Favorite Release

 Good morning! Today I have a couple more cards to share using some more of the new You Are My Favorite Release from Simon Says Stamp. Today I have this pastel embossed duo of cards - with some bold pops of black to set them off!

Embossing folders make it SOOO easy to create a lovely card quickly and easily! I love the new Heavenly Heart Floral Frame, and chose some warm pastel tones of Spellbinders cardstock to use it on. I paired it with a heart die cut from Nested Round Hearts that was a perfect fit - and then some sentiments and butterfly and dragonfly from Big Botanicals stamp set. Added an extra pop of black with some Black Dazzling Gems, and then some sparkle to the butterfly and dragonfly with some Nuvo glitter drops in Blizzard. Simple and fun! Here's a closer look:

Floral Frame Thinking of You Trio - Simon Says Stamp

Good morning! Today I have a trio of elegant sympanthy cards to share using some more of the new You Are My Favorite Release from Simon Says Stamp, paired up with some older items as well!

For these cards, I started off by heat embossing the lovely frame from Flowering Frame on different colors of Simon Says Stamp cardstock. I heat embossed in Gold on Sage and Rainforest, then in Antique Gold on Honey. I die cut them with the coordinating dies, then pulled out my cardbases. For these, I started off by ink blending along the top of my white cardbases with coordinating inks in Aegean, Honey, and Sage. Next, I chose another floral from the Flowering Frame set, and stamped it tone on tone over the ink blending around the edges of the card. For the sentiments, I used Moments of Grace - an oldie but a goodie - stamped in black ink. I mounted the embossed frames over the top with foam strips, added some coordinating Glitter Enamel dots, and a little bow from Lawn Fawn white twine to finish them off! Here are more photos, including close ups of each card:
